Biden has done a better job than I expected, but he should clearly retire. I think this is a huge, and almost necessary opportunity for Democrats. Incumbents are way more likely to get reelected. Since Trump has pissed off too many people, and he’ll sabotage any other front runners for his party.
Wouldn’t it make sense to get someone younger and a little bolder in now for the Dema? They have a very strong likelihood to win this round, and then they’ll be the incumbents next term. We could finally replace some garbage supreme court members.
I mean, I know why our elections don’t work like that. Current politicians like the system that keeps them in office. It’s also very difficult to change the process.
I strongly believe that until we fix the election process, everything we do is treating symptoms rather than the problem. In addition to the mentioned rules, I would add: Term limits, ending gerrymandering, banning stock ownership for politicians, and removing the electoral college.
How can we expect non-corrupt representatives, when the current system begs for money and has so many loopholes to profit from office?
I’ll believe it when I see it. There seems to be countless sources confirming egregious tax fraud (and every other crime under the sun), yet nothing ever comes of it. I read that Hunter Biden plead guilty to tax fraud this week, so it’s not impossible for the IRS to catch up with well connected people. Yet Cheeto has been getting away with it for decades.
I’ll still keep some bubbly in the fridge on the off chance that something finally catches up to the orange sweat stain.

It’s horrific stuff. Literally any other job would have you immediately fired, and probably sued.
Police just keep rolling.
Now do everything.
